Despite the recent hurricane, PCB continues to shine as an example of community and service coming first, and this most recent trip to Sheila's studio proved it.
Since I was here for DR operations, I wanted a small place to stay close to my work site in order to reduce travel time, and the positioning was great, reducing what was a 4 hour round trip down to an hour. The cost was very reasonable, especially with hotel saturation being maxed out across the region. Despite construction in the area, travel was easy to accomplish, and the services available at the resort were perfect, with on-site security, plenty of ways to walk to nearby locations, and plenty of amenities both in and out of the unit.
Inside the unit was seriously amazing. A simple king bed and love seat turned into my office, the bar was my lab, and the kitchen was my supply bench. Thanks to the generously stocked layout, I was able to recharge my numerous devices, perform remote work via the in-unit wifi, and rebuild my kit for the next day like a pro. Then, when all of that was done, the kitchen had everything I needed to cook, snack, craft my drinks, and truly relax, enjoying the pool or beach, or even just the balconies soundscape, mixed with the Buetooth audio system and adjustable lighting (both warm and cool bulbs available across different lamp sets). The bathroom and supply closet allowed me to clean up with ease and adapt to various conditions, and take advantage of the beach when I had a moment.
And then there's Sheila herself. Her adaptability to my odd timing and requirements was highly commendable and if I ever had a question, she was just a text message away. That said, 95% of what I needed was right there in the binder! Her research contained in that book was answering questions before I even thought to ask them and providing excellent insight for food, drink, and vibe of various locations more easily than even Google could, which lead to some amazing evenings that flowed together like an eternal dance. Her care and understanding allowed me to go above and beyond even my own standards of work, especially thanks to her wonderful gift left in the fridge for me.
TL;DR: This place rocks. The moment I have a chance to come back for a proper surfing vacations with friends and family, it will happen, but for a perfect 2 person setup that really shines that beach bum, Neptunian, or Parrothead vibe with high-class features and a perfect layout, Sheila delivers in style~
